I practically gave up on anything related to Star Wars after Rogue One, and only checked out the Obi-Wan Kenobi series for old time’s sake and still found it wanting. So it was out of morbid curiosity and a slight masochistic streak that I decided to check out the notorious first three episodes of Disney’s…
They’re paying taxes just by buying things because of VAT, they said. That only counts if you didn’t ask for the money to buy anything. Otherwise it’s your lender paying for everything and not you, you freeloading twit. The only thing you’re capable of generating instead of income are asinine opinions on how things should…
The awarding of a Nobel Peace Prize to Rappler founder Maria Ressa was the subject of much criticism and objection, not the least among them coming from author and National Artist for Literature F. Sionil Jose. And these are not without sound basis. The Nobel body says the awards were given to Ressa and Russian…
Apparently there’s a new online sensation whetting the appetites of every Pinoy woke while waiting for the next outrage fad for their grandstanding pleasure. A satirical cartoonist called Tarantadong Kalbo apparently made a simple illustration about clenched fists bowing down to some unseen figure while a solitary one is standing in open defiance. Simply called…
So many Filipinos around social media are posting “thank you, PNoy!” “You are the best president,” and other praises and adulations. Yuck. These adulations are unnecessary, and of course I would say they are mistaken. I’m pretty sure that that they make such posts in protest to the Rodrigo Duterte administration. But they mix it…
I just learned about Critical Race Theory, one of those bunk ideas being perpetuated in the United States. As per my understanding, the theory posits that all abuse of authority in the US is only explained by white supremacists using their positions to maintain racial discrimination for their own benefit. Basically, all the problems in…
Trust yellowtards to continue alienating potential support bases for their campaign machinery in future elections. In an astounding display of cavalier and sensationalist “reporting”, official yellow newsletter Rappler threw shade on recently-departed Ang Dating Daan founder and leader Bro. Eliseo “Eli” Soriano in their blurbs and headlines that were since edited after receiving considerable backlash…
Well yes, UP did not force anyone to join any terror group. And did anyone from the armed forces say that in the first place? Why is the university always in a defensive stance whenever talks of law enforcers and the state university are put together in the same sentence? It’s almost a knee-jerk response…
No wonder some celebrities are too noisy. They probably believe in these lines attributed to Holocaust writer Elie Wiesel: “Neutrality helps the oppressor, not the victim.” “Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.” It seems these celebrities and the wokes are afraid of being branded as “oppressors” themselves, knowing they live luxurious lives, so they…
As if Sharon Cuneta’s continued meltdown on social media via her Rolex posts weren’t enough, along comes Agot Isidro with a different, yet strangely similar case. On a tweet, Ms Isidro slammed Mrs Jinkee Pacquiao for being “insensitive” in a time where a lot are suffering due to rampant poverty and hunger. The object of…
